My vet recommended that I wait at least two years before neutering. He is an 80 pound dog and she wanted him to have testosterone for as long as he could to maintain lean mass for fewer orthopedic issues. He will be 4 this summer and I have still not done it. But I am wondering about his increased cancer risk. I will ask when he has his annual check up in August whether it is time. He is extremely mild mannered
About 5 years ago I had communication with you via email. Some of the sites you recommended in Speaking for Spot were very informative on this topic. I’m happy to say, my 5 yo Siberian had a vasectomy at about 10months. He is healthy, happy and a very welcomed guest at our local “Barker Lounge” boarding kennel. He is well socialized and has lots of play dates at our home as well. I am very happy I took the vasectomy route, thanks to you. I have no regrets.
Whoa, interesting. It doesn’t surprise me that vets are treating more aggression injuries and pyrometra and breast cancer. It’s an interesting discussion … looking forward to more.

Glad you and your husky have had a good experience Janet.
